halloween goodness.

This photo is so funny, it kind of looks like a movie poster. You know when they montage the images of the actors together. Elizabeth is so dramatic in the background as Belle. Paige is starring as Bloom, the winx girl, and Nolan is starring as himself. He's himself with more facial hair. Ken called him Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita), which is quite accurate. I snuck a little 'words of wisdom' in there since it is wednesday and I have been totally slacking on my quotes!

Halloween was a real howler this year. The kids had a ball- Nolan was interested in the trick or treating until he got his first treat and then it was all over for him. I collected candy for him but we all know that I'm going to enjoy a good portion of it while counting my points (calories) of course!Nolan was supposed to go as a Tuna fish, I bought him the cutest hat that looked like a large stuffed blue tuna fish. Unfortunately today he didn't feel like having it on his head. So I wore it and Ken turned him into Mr. Miyagi with the help of one of my eyeliner pencils. So all was well in the end. Here are the halloween photos in flickr.I've left my Jack'o'lanterns outside in hopes that some unruly youth steals them like they have in the past. This way i don't need to find a way to dispose of the things. Smart, no?? last time I checked, they were still sitting pretty on the bench.A question for you folks in blog land... Do you have fireworks at halloween? Here, it's a big deal to buy fireworks and set them off on halloween. I'd never heard of it until I moved to the Island. of course, people buy their fireworks a week early and can't help but set them off every day and night. It's freaky.

I have to say that I'm so in love with Suz's new baby girl, Sarah. Gosh, she is so tiny and cute I can't even stand it. It just about makes me want another one... if they came out with a nanny- I'd be all over it. For now, I'm going to keep harrassing Suz for afternoon coffee and snuggles... it's heavenly.

Okay I should go hit the sack... it's been a hectic day in the island household and tomorrow will be more of the same,Take it easy folks, Halloween is officially OVER.~jen
